Do you understand?

“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,”
Ephesians 1:17-18(KJV)


The Apostle Paul in our opening scripture, prayed for the Ephesian church, that God should grant unto them the Spirit of wisdom and revelation. What is the significance of this prayer? And why is it important for you to always pray this prayer for yourself?

The answer is in Ephesians 1:18, “The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,” This means that when the Spirit of wisdom and revelation is at work in you, it will cause the eyes of your understanding to be enlightened, in other words, it will bring you better understanding.

Why is understanding important? Understanding enhances your focus. It helps you to eliminate distractions and questions from your heart. So, when you have a clear understanding of the Word of God, and the rhema He has given to us this year, it will eliminate distractions and questions from your heart concerning the integrity of the rhema that God has given to us. Understanding is the anchor of convictions.

Therefore, I will like to encourage you to buy the new year's message. You may have been there when the Word was proclaimed, it doesn't matter. If you want to see that Word manifested in your life, hearing it once is not enough to give you the clarity and understanding you need to run with it. See James 1:25.

So, buy the message and the teaching series that accompany it, listen to them again, and again, and again, because what you keep on hearing, you will eventually believe, and what you believe is what will be manifested. I believe that this is your year, its your time to shine again, so maintain your focus on the Word of God.
